Instruction Manual
Congratulations on your decision to give your baby the best possible start
in life by breastfeeding. The multitude of health benefits for both you and
your baby are well documented. Although breastmilk is always best, providing
breastmilk for your baby when you have to be away isn’t always easy. It
requires a special effort, and you should be very proud of your commitment to
provide your baby the perfect nutrition for ideal growth and development. Our
electric breast pump Pro was designed to be the best for mothers who want
to find own pumping style and to optimize pumping experience.
Batteries are not included in the product. Please prepare four AA alkaline
batteries to use the breast pump with batteries.

it securely so that no air can escape. You can create a good seal by
using your other hand to support your breast from underneath.
* If your nipples are large and they touch the cover, we recommend using the
large flange.

Confirm that your nipple/papilla is moving and suction is being applied.
The display switches as shown below each time you press the button so that you can adjust
the speed.
➡
When breastmilk starts coming out (or after 1-2 minutes), switch to
“Expression mode”.

About the breast pump
This breast pump is for expressing breastmilk when you want to store it and feed it to your
baby later, or if you have problems with your nipples and are unable to breastfeed your baby
directly.
Correct use of this pump will allow you to enjoy feeding breastmilk to your baby. Every mother
expresses breastmilk differently. We recommend that you experiment to find the settings that
are most comfortable for you.
Breastmilk facts
Breastmilk originates from a mother’s blood.
Breastmilk is made from the mother's blood. It may seem hard to believe that red blood can turn into
white breastmilk. How does this happen? Breastmilk does not contain any of the red blood cells that make
blood red. The cells that produce breastmilk are surrounded by a great number of blood capillaries. When
the blood capillaries come into contact with the cells, the nutrients from the blood pass into the cells, and
breastmilk is formed. Breastmilk is a very important gift from a mother to a baby. Try to maintain a regular
lifestyle so that you can provide your baby with the best possible breastmilk.
What causes breastmilk secretion?
Breastmilk is ejected as a result of prolactin activity. Prolactin is a lactogenic hormone that is secreted by
the anterior pituitary gland. Prolactin activity is suppressed by the large quantities of estrogen and luteal
hormone that are secreted from the placenta during pregnancy. When the placenta is discharged following
birth, suppression ends, breastmilk is produced, and secretion is promoted. In addition, sucking by a baby
(peristaltic movement) stimulates the breast, releasing the hormone oxytocin, and causing breastmilk to
be secreted (breastmilk ejection). The more frequently your baby sucks, the easier it is for breastmilk to be
ejected.

How to take care of the pump
• Always disassemble the parts before washing and sterilizing.
• Do not wash or sterilize the motor, tube connector, or AC adapter.
Caution
Motor
• Do not wipe the motor with a wet towel or wash with water.
• If it is dirty, apply detergent to a cloth and wipe clean.
Other parts
• Wash and sterilize the pump before using it for the first time.
• Soak the pump in lukewarm water and wash them by using a detergent such as “Pigeon Liquid Cleanser” after
use. Please make sure to rinse thoroughly after washing.
• Sterilize the parts after washing.
• Be careful not to lose small parts when washing the pump parts.
• Use a soft sponge brush for washing.
• Do not handle silicone rubber parts roughly. Doing so will cause tears or scratches.
• Do not clean with a scourer, polishing powder, or hard brush. Doing so will scratch the surface.
[Boiling sterilization]
• Place thoroughly washed parts in a large pot filled with water. Bring to a boil. Sterilization time is 5 minutes after
the water comes to a boil.
• If there is not enough water, parts may stick to the side of the pot and become deformed.

come with the product.

About the included nursing bottle and nipple
This nipple can only be used with Pigeon Peristaltic PLUS™ Nursing Bottle.
Note: If your baby becomes comfortable with one certain nipple, he or she may object new ones. So rotate 2 or more
nipples and replace them about every 2 months. If the nipples become worn out, replace them without regard to how
many times they have been used.
Warning Follow the warnings below carefully. Not doing so can cause burns.
• The bottle may become hot when preparing formula. Be careful not to burn yourself. • Do
not prepare formula near your baby, as there is a danger of burns. • Be sure to check the
temperature of the milk or other fluid before feeding. • The bottle may be hot after boiling or
microwave sterilization. Be careful not to burn yourself. • When preparing formula, if you shake
the upright bottle, hot liquid may gush out, causing burns. Handle the bottle carefully. • Do not
attach the hood and shake the bottle. If the hood is attached, the high temperatures may cause
the pressure inside the bottle to rise, leading to leaks or spouting of the hot liquid.
• Nursing bottles are for feeding your baby milk or other drink. Do not use them for any other purpose.
• The scale on the nursing bottle can be used as a guide when preparing formula. If you need to be more
precise, use a measuring cup or measuring spoon.
Formula
See the milk powder package for details on how to prepare formula.
Feeding
Feed your baby the formula after cooling it to approximately body temperature.
• Only a caregiver should feed the baby. • If you tighten the cap too hard, the nipple may collapse. • Consume the
formula immediately once prepared. Discard any formula if you don’t use within 2 hours of preparation.
